they think in the long run it will be effective in a big debate like this. bret? >> bret: ed, thank you. stocks were again down today to close what was the worst week in a year. the dow dropped 97, the s&p 500 gave back 8 1/3, the nasdaq dropped 10. fuel to the fire in the debt ceiling debate. peter barnes breaks down the number. >> high gas prices and weak income gains for workers have the economy growing at its slowest six-month pace since the economic recovery began early last year. the government said today that gdp grew at just a 1.3% annual rate in the second quarter, well below expectations. but the shocker was a huge downward revision of the number for the first quarter. growth originally clocked in at 1.9%, but now the government says it grew at just .4 of a president. for the president, the numbers were too bad to ignore, even as he pressured republicans to cut a deal with him on the debt ceiling to help the economy. >> on a day when we've been reminded how fragile the economy already is, this is one burden we can lift ourselves. we can end it with a sim

as you know, the big, big divide has been over key issues. taxes and entitlements. republicans don't want to see any tax increases. democrats do and on the other side there has been a lot of discussion about how could there be shared pain for both parties to get a deal where there would be some changes to entitlements. that's tough for democrats and some change in the tax code that would increase how much the government takes in but do it in a way where they would change the systems so rates could actually go down. that can be tough for republicans to sell. this is a major development. we expect it could have significant ramifications on the country's ability to meet this deadline. because there is so much time involved, it actually turning whatever agreement were to be reached at some point into legislative language and then getting it passed. what i can tell you is this is not a positive development. we know that there will be some very stern words coming from both the white house and we certainly heard that from here on capitol hill from aides close to speaker bo
